Explanation

Calculation basis: 28.3495 grams per avoirdupois ounce divided by grams per US cup.

Asafoetida uses a recorded reference of 144 grams per US cup in this dataset. Confidence: low. Source basis: and1 ingredient weight chart: 1 tablespoon asafoetida powder = 9 g (derived to 1 cup = 144 g) https://www.and1.com/measurements/cups-in-gram/

Evidence status: source-unverified. The cited AND1 source has not been independently verified. Its current domain context does not establish the original measurement. Whole versus ground form, grind size, settling, and leveling are important because these concentrated ingredients are commonly measured in small volumes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does packed vs leveled change the result?

This ingredient uses a leveled-cup handling basis, so packed or sifted fills can still shift practical density.
